Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt until well mixed.
- Add the warm water, Greek yogurt, and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Flour your surface gently and knead the dough for about 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Fold in the crumbled feta cheese, fresh herbs, and minced garlic until evenly distributed.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm spot for 45–60 minutes until it has doubled in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a flat circle, around ¼-inch thick.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook each flatbread for 1–2 minutes per side until light golden and puffy.
- Brush the hot flatbreads with melted unsalted butter for a rich finish. Serve warm.
Notes
Optional: Sprinkle extra feta on top before serving for added flavor.
